There are a few ways of handling this problem, which we implemented at Paradise:

1. Use a password, but disallow all railbird chat - this saves people coming in and begging for the password. This obviously doesn't help those that pass the password onto their mates (or "secret freeroll password forums").
2. Register all the relevant Players for the tourney. So long as you provide their Usernames with sufficient time they can be inserted into the specific tourney - and then onyl you have the password that you can give out to specific latecomers (if needed). Thsi has proved a great success with many affiliates.
